Utilizing Strong Authentication for Secure File Collaboration in the Enterprise

Managers tasked with leading IT and security today find themselves having to navigate fundamental changes in their professional environment.

In the process they are being overtaken by business units, groups and even individual employees who are taking an off-road approach by procuring IT services on their own, whether by subscribing to a SaaS offering, buying their own computing equipment, downloading a productivity application, or renting cloud storage. From here, the slippery road toward unauthorized file sharing and leakage of sensitive corporate data is short.

Join your fellow professionals for a best practices session on “Utilizing Strong Authentication to Encourage Collaboration in the Enterprise”. In this webinar executives from SafeNet and WatchDox will discuss how strong authentication combines with file sharing to facilitate and enable secure collaboration in the enterprise.

The cloud isn’t consumed by enterprises in just one way. Enterprises have varying internal capabilities and infrastructure means using different deployment models, on or off-premises, private and public clouds, hosted clouds through via multiple cloud vendors, which lends to a complex environment. Today, enterprises run roughly 41% of applications in the cloud, but workloads in cloud environments are expected to increase to 60% over the next two years. Organizations with multiple cloud platforms is becoming a fact of life, but creates challenges for businesses needing to secure them.

Understanding the risks of each cloud platform is crucial to defining and implementing strong, dynamic data protection policies with comprehensive key management across all cloud-enabled environments. When encryption is used, the risk is transferred from the data itself to the cryptographic key. This is why it is essential that organizations control their own key infrastructure. Diving deeper into the topic, Eric Hanselman from 451 Group and John Ray from Gemalto will discuss the three key considerations to a successful multi-cloud security strategy: interoperability, control and compliance.

Join our webinar “The Keys to Multi-Cloud Security” on Tuesday, December 13th 2016 and learn about:
• Recent findings on enterprise cloud usage from 451 Group
• How to analyze the security risks of your cloud platforms
• Security practices for different cloud platforms and business processes
• Future-proofing your Cloud security and data protection compliance
• How security can work in the multi-cloud universe
• Implementing a key management system that you own

Between 2005 and 2020, data volumes will grow by a factor of 300 – enough data to stack CDs from the earth to the moon 162 times. This has come to be known as the ‘big data’ phenomenon. Unfortunately, traditional approaches to handling, storing and analyzing data aren’t adequate at this scale: they’re too costly, slow and physically cumbersome to keep up. Fortunately, in response a new breed of technology has emerged that is cheaper, faster and more scalable. Yet, in meeting these new needs they break many of the traditional security approaches and spark questions like:

With massive volumes of data, how are organizations going to ensure that their customer information is safe from people looking to exploit it?

Is it possible to adopt big data technologies while demonstrating compliance with industry regulations?

Will security get in the way of the analytics tools?

How can security apply to different data consumption technologies like Hadoop and NOSQL?

Join Gemalto on Thursday, December 1, 2016 as we discuss what’s in store for the ‘big data’ technologies of the future and how security models like encryption can solve the security conundrum.

The new EU regulation of the Privacy world (the GDPR) is rapidly approaching. This webinar will reveal a back to basics approach in relation to GDPR. Specifically, Jason Hart - Gemalto CTO will identify a GDPR blueprint that tackles the privacy concerns around confidentiality, integrity and availability of sensitive data.

A convenient and consistent online user experience breeds trust in a service. How it’s executed can alter a user’s perception either positively or negatively. When it comes to online security, consumers have different perceptions. What banks want to avoid is “security fatigue.”

Risk management systems make sensitive online transactions more user friendly by customizing security in response to the risk. The real-time assessment of a user’s transaction is instantly evaluated and an authentication step can be sent if needed. Adapting strong authentication to the online transactions improves the customer experience and avoids fatiguing your users with security if it’s not necessary.

Not all online transactions are created equal, so successful security solutions need to be intelligent and smart. Join us for a webinar on Tuesday November 16, 2016 as we discuss:
•What not to do when it comes to online banking security
•How to build a customized risk-based authentication process
•Security as a business enabler
•The influence of a user’s security persona toward risk

Last year, cyber criminals started turning their focus to hacking people’s personal information. This year, more than half of all data breaches are identity theft. Hackers have been targeting government databases to get the information. It’s currently the industry with the largest number of records stolen and/or compromised. The cyber criminal’s shift from credit card and financial data to personal information begs the question “how much is your identity really worth?” While it might start as a nuisance, the true impact of identity theft to an individual can be catastrophic and costly. With the Internet of Things taking off and the number of connected devices increasing, it is important to make your data worthless to fraudsters. This webinar looks at the major data breach trends in 2016. Who is doing the hacking, how they are doing it, what needs to be protected in the Internet of Things era and what data is under attack. In addition, listeners can get a new understanding of how to approach data security and “Secure the Breach”.

The new EU regulation of the Privacy world (the GDPR) is frequently portrayed as a scary and formidable piece of legislation that’s going to rock the online & off-line world. This webinar will explore what the implications really are. How much will change from the present regime? How difficult will it be to comply? Also is there an opportunity hidden in the challenge? And where will security and security professionals fit in the new picture?

This webinar will discuss the recent findings of a global cloud data security study conducted by the Ponemon Institute on behalf of Gemalto. The study surveyed 3,476 IT and IT security professionals in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Germany, France, Japan, Russian Federation, India and Brazil about the governance policies and security practices their organizations have in place to secure data in cloud environments. The findings will reveal adoption trends for IaaS, PaaS and SaaS; the prevalence of Shadow IT; the role of data governance; and data security practices in the cloud, including the usage of encryption and multi-factor authentication. In addition, participants will also learn new data security strategies that can help them realize the benefits of the cloud while protecting sensitive applications and information in cloud.

Today’s changing and sophisticated threat landscape and increasing use of the cloud and mobile devices have rewritten the rules of data security. However, many companies continue to rely on breach prevention as the foundation of their security strategies. If one thing has been learned in recent years it is that data breaches are inevitable, and that is why IT organizations must shift a from mindset that is entirely focused on Breach Prevention to Breach Acceptance and finally to a Secure the Breach approach to data security. This presentation will review why IT professionals need to adopt a new data security mindset if they are to effectively protect sensitive information and users accessing it using a three step process of securing user access, encrypting sensitive data, and secure management of encryption keys.

How closely are banks listening to their customers about their desire to embrace mobile services? Join Gemalto to understand firsthand what banking customers want and expect when it comes to mobile banking. During this session we’ll share the findings of a recent survey Gemalto conducted with more than 200 digital banking users. From the results we can get an in depth understanding of users’ attitudes to digital banking and their expectations of security, and can help banks fine tune their mobile offerings to address both security and convenience.

Technologies like software defined networking (SDN) provide flexibility and efficiency, but where does security fit in? SDN, like any network can be attacked at each network component. And as bandwidths increase to 100G and beyond, the rate of data transfer and the risks escalate, both on the physical and virtual plane. So what can you do to protect your networks and the data that travels through them?

The cloud provides an easy way for companies to consume and manage colossal amounts of data, but is it secure? SAML—the Cloud Defender You never Heard Of--can make sure it stays out of the hands of hackers and fraudsters.
What is SAML? How does it work? And how can it protect all your favorite cloud apps, while keeping citizens happy and slashing helpdesk workloads? Join the webinar on Wednesday, June 15th to learn how to extend identities to the cloud with SafeNet Authentication Service’s native identity federation, which lets IT administrators manage a single identity per user, for all cloud, virtual and on-premises applications. SafeNet Authentication Service extends strong authentication to Office 365, Salesforce.com, Dropbox, Google Apps, Amazon Workspaces, Jira, ZenDesk, and 100s of other cloud applications.

Many companies are making big investments in Cloud Foundry with providers such as Pivotal, IBM Bluemix, and GE Predix. The Cloud Foundry platform-as-a-service makes it easier for companies to build, test, and deploy applications more quickly – allowing them to focus on adding business value. This webinar will give an overview of how developers can build enhanced security into their applications using hardware security modules as the root of trust for their encryption and cryptographic operations.

RSA’s Data Protection Manager (DPM), BSAFE and tokenization products are quickly approaching EOL/EOPS, presenting RSA customers with an opportunity to reassess their encryption key management architecture and needs. With so many technologies available today that seemingly offer the same capabilities, how do you select the vendor and solution that is right for you?
Join Stephen Kingston, Product Manager for SafeNet KeySecure, Gemalto, where you will learn how you can:

Until recently, EU data protection laws mainly focused on data subject consent, proportionality, purpose limitation, transparency, etc. Information security, however, was very often deemed to be an area for the techies, not an area of legal compliance.
This will change as a result of two recent and major pieces of EU legislation: the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Network and Information Security Directive (NIS Directive).
Under the GDPR and the NIS Directive, businesses and operators of essential services (eg. hospitals; airports; etc.) will have to implement robust information and system security measures. In addition, the new rules contain a new name-and-shame mechanism: businesses and operators will have to inform the relevant authorities of security incidents. And they will have to inform the affected data subjects, unless the affected data were rendered unintelligible (for example by means of encryption).
Finally, the EU wants the new data protection rules to become a board-level issue and it has therefore decided to make the rules subject to hefty fines:
•If a business fails to comply with its data security obligations under the GDPR, it may get a fine of up to 10,000,000 EUR or 2 % of its total worldwide annual turnover, whichever is higher.
•Worse even, if a business is found to be in breach of certain other obligations under the GDPR, the fine may go up to a dazzling 4 % of its total worldwide annual turnover.
During this webinar, you will learn from Jason Hart, CTO at Gemalto and Tom De Cordier, an expert in data protection and information security law at CMS in Brussels, what the new rules mean in practice and what businesses should do to bring themselves in line with the upcoming requirements.

Every day, we create 2.5 quintillion bytes of data — so much that 90% of the data in the world today has been created in the last two years alone.
More data in more places is leading to an increasing number of data breaches with attackers intent on trying to monetize your sensitive information.
Jason Hart, IDP CTO at Gemalto will explain why data is the new oil and how easy it is to get hacked with a live hacking demo.
In this interactive webinar we will also discuss:
- Why your data is wanted
- The new data Protection paradigm
- Live Hacking demo
- What’s next and what to do now to remain on the safe side

Join the webinar to find out what you should know about Data Protection, how Cloud, IOT and big data impact your information security solutions and to how to keep your data safe.

Organizations today need to employ cloud services in their day-to-day operations, but determining where to start and what works best is not an easy task. To build a hybrid-cloud platform, one must take into consideration a variety of factors including security, location, application requirements, and costs. Join us on April 21st to gain expert advice to help determine what mix of private and public clouds is right for you.

Code signing protects the Devices we use every day; in devices you expect as well as ones you may not have thought about. Code signing is used heavily in transportation; cars, planes, busses, tractors, etc all leverage code signing on various parts to ensure from the manufacturer that they are all up to spec, safe and have a valid origin.
As the Internet of Things expands so does the need for trust that the code comes from the correct source. From Fridges to Bridges, Satellites to street lights, code signing is everywhere. Unfortunately, our adversaries have started to recognize value of stealing the sensitive cryptographic keys that underpin the code signing process.
Join Gemalto on this webinar to learn:
•The value of code signing in IoT
•How hackers are increasingly trying to steal signing keys
•Methods for high-assurance code signing
•And more!

The breach is going to happen and when it does, you better make sure you are prepared. When your mission-critical applications such as industrial control systems are hacked, it’s not only about data being exposed. By injecting data into the system, the hacker can override the entire system and even shut it down. Join us on April 12th at 10am EST to learn how to prevent this happening through a layered security approach that includes encrypting your data in motion and at rest, and the cryptographic keys that secure it, while ensuring only authorized personnel can access the systems.

The Safe Harbor agreement allowed American and European countries to share personal data. This agreement is now invalid and a new one has taken its place.
